Interests

Good afternoon, and a warm welcome to the first meeting in 2021 of the Education and Skills Committee. I remind everyone to turn their mobile devices to silent for the duration of the meeting, please.

Since we last met, there has been a change to the committee’s membership, with Oliver Mundell replacing Jamie Halcro Johnston. I thank Jamie Halcro Johnston for his work and wish him all the best in his new parliamentary duties.

I welcome Oliver Mundell back to the committee. Under agenda item 1, I invite him to declare any relevant interests.

Thank you, convener. I am pleased to be rejoining the committee. I do not have any interests to declare.

Thank you very much. I highlight that Oliver is leaving the meeting briefly and will join us later.
